Complications:
Motivation(Justice)-Lela wants not only her company Back,but also the Dragon Fang put out of Commision,regardless of if it's really legal or not...
Relationship(Dropkick, Pete Bazzini)-Pete was an ex-lover of Lela from college that still held a torch for her,but couldn't seem to compete with her current lover,Troy Wilde(The Fact that Troy could Probably Smear him across the floor really had nothing to due with it,obviously...)
Background:
Lela Cho was the only child of the millionaire owner of Hong Kong high technology firm Hypersonic ; he educated her richly and carefully, ultimately sending her to Harvard – as he felt his little girl had what it took to inherit Hypersonic. He was probably right ; she was only 23 when she graduated from Harvard with a masters degree in business. However, that was also the year when he died.
Although the death seemed perfectly natural to all involved, including Lela Cho, Terrance Cho had been killed by a third party that was attempting to control Hypersonic. When Lela Cho met the board of directors, it quickly became obvious almost all of them wanted her out (as most of them had been bought) and she had little means to stop this corporate mutiny.
Seeking an edge to reaffirm her rights as top shareholder, she came up with the notion that ultra powers would be the best thing. Her father had made her aware of a little known secret : the corporate giant, Nuware, had the means of implanting ultra powers in an human being, using a technology called wetware. This carried an hefty price tag, and was only open to a select few – but Terrance Cho’s daughter could both qualify and pay the price.
When she came back to Hong Kong, however, things didn’t go well at all. What she thought was a corporate mutiny was really a criminal gambit run by a very powerful triad called the Dragon Fang. She was greeted by killers with guns and forced at gunpoint to sign the papers forfeiting her shares. She only escaped torture and death by diving through a window and fleeing in a nearby limousine.
Seriously lacking options, she ended up in a bar in New York run by Pete Bazzini, an ex-lover – a man with powerful connections who might be able to help her. While the Dragon Fang were out of Bazzini’s scope, he gave her a useful contact – Troy Wilde, a skilled and well connected professional troubleshooter and mercenary.
Wilde was, indeed, skilled and well-connected. He allowed her to escape a Dragon Fang assassin and took her to a secret place behind a pub in London, that served as a meeting point for many mages, ultras and other paranormal types. In the pub, they met and befriended Shadowmage, and a few hours later met and recruited Outrage. While Wilde was badly wounded while in London, he struck a deal that he would work for Cho if she had him healed, and enhanced with wetware. He took the name Dropkick. Thus was the Solution born.
The Solution’s first goal is to pay its own upkeep ; since such an operation is expensive, Cho is actively hunting after lucrative contracts for a skilled, small and powerful group of ultrahuman mercenaries. Another mission is to strike, between contracts, to the Dragon Fangs – in order to weaken them so a direct financial move on Hypersonic becomes possible.
Personality:
Lela Cho is several things at once. Daddy’s proper, well educated and respectful little girl ; a courageous young businesswoman who’s out of her depth (due to lack of experience rather than lack of talent) ; the field leader and strategist of a respected team of international mercenaries ; and a ultra hero.
Thrust in circumstances beyond her control, Cho keeps on making courageous choices because she must honor her birthright and her father’s will (she is ambitious and wants to be a successful business leader, but her respect for her dead father comes first). She then rides the consequences of her choices as best as she can and with great courage.
She can sometimes seems reckless, due to her lack of experience – but she will always accept the consequences of her actions, whatever the risks, and never give in. That makes her a very straight, reliable and honest person.
Although she always wears the mask of an uncompromising leader, Cho is deep down nervous and frightened. She’s very loyal to her team, due her personality, her image of what a good leader should be, and the fact it is reassuring to have such powerful fighters around.
Lela is the only public voice for The Solution – all others have serious reasons for fleeing media exposure. She generally just refers to a highly trained team of ultras who work undercover and thus cannot reveal their face, making The Solution a bit of a mystery for the general public.
Lela’s most common exclamation of surprise is the Chinese “wei !”.
Macyn's Notes:
Tech is the Perfect example of what the Ultraverse could've been:a fairly good alternative option to Marvel that used old Idea's in new ways.Beisdes Prime,i'd go so far as to consider her the "Poster Child" of Malibu at the Time(Just type in Ultraverse in Google&watch how many times an image of her show's up...)
As an aside:I think Claremont ripped this character completely off when he Introduced The Undercover X-Man Sage...
